Radiator/heater Q

The very "in-the-way-for-the-turbointake" hose on the left (looking from front) on the radiator. Whats that for? Heater core? Disconected my heater core a couple years ago and I can't remember. If so can I block the outlet from motor?

Not sure I understand your question, but there is a hose from the heater that goes over to the Int.Manifold to get water for the heater.

i'am sure that if you mean the port in the radiator, that sits almost toward the intake of the turbo goes to the heatercore.

in sweden, you got snow, so why don''t you replace the heatercore?

Re: Radiator/heater Q

yes thats the port. So can I plug that one...remove hose and plug the outlet by the manifold?

I dont drive my TY in the winter...I'm taking my bicycle too work in the snow.
I know it's stupid :)
